But Kirby Puckett is in, and I’d say Murphy was a better player than Puckett, who also had a short career. Puckett hit 318/360/477 and had 207 HR and 134 SB. Those are pretty close rate stats only Murphy had better counting numbers and, of course, superior defense and those 5 Gold Gloves. Puckett has the edge in postseason heroics, which count.


Puckett is in and Rice, Dawson, etc. How in the hell can the writers, with a clear conscience, not put Murph in. Its a travesty he is not in already!

simply put, all he has to hang his hat on is the 2 MVPs he won.


the other guys have more to hang their hat on, mainly prolonged success at a high level
